I made a dozen cards today. Some of the ideas I had didn’t work, but nothing was wasted and I used up a lot of odds and sods.
I love butterflies, and use them a lot in my cards. It could be ‘my signature’ I suppose, but I found that the ones I used to buy were not available when we went into the craft shop when Hubby had his hospital appointment a few months ago. I did stock up with a lot of trimmings though, but used none of those today.
I was quite pleased with my efforts as they are all different and I shall be writing to our friends tomorrow. The box is looking quite full now!

I am a retired number cruncher with a vivid imagination and wacky sense of humour which extends to short stories and poetry. I love to cook and am a bit of a dog whisperer as I get on better with them than people sometimes!
We have recently lost our beloved dog Maggie who adopted us as a 7 week old pup in March 2005. We decided to have a photo put on canvas as we had for her predecessor Barney, and now have three pictures of our fur babies on the wall as we found a snapshot of my GSD so had hers done too.
From 2014 to 2017 'Home' was a 41 foot narrow boat where we made strong friendships both on and off the water. We were close to nature enjoying swan and duck families for neighbours, and it was a fascinating chapter in our lives.
We now reside in a small bungalow on the Lincolnshire coast where we have forged new friendships and interests.
Beautiful cards!
Thank you! It was a good session today.
I love them Di
Thanks Fransi. My main idea actually didn’t work very well, but nothing was binned today.
I also love butterflies!
I’ve used them a lot on my cards.
The butterflies certainly give the cards a special boost! I also like the last one with the diamond shape in the center… all very pretty!
thank you. I had some fun today.
So beautiful! I wish I could be so talented 😉
Thank you. I was never creative or good at arts and crafts at school, so I was surprised I took to this about 12 years ago and enjoy it so much.
These are darling! And, I love that you’ll write to friends! What a treat it will be for them to recieve these thoughtful gifts from you in their mail💕
I sent off four today, the average age of the recipients being around 82.
Bless your kind and thoughtful heart💕
Thanks Laura.

Thanks Willow. I was pleased with these, even the one that didn’t quite go as expected!
That’s often the way isn’t it 💜
Yes. I had a disastrous session once, ended up binning three, making two and packing up!
Lol 😂😂
Your cards a stunning! It’s a lovely creative pastime and while you’re enjoying yourself, you also end up with something very useful. 😀
Thanks Sci. It was a good session yesterday and I enjoyed myself as I was using up odd and ends rather than kits.
Nice 😀
